The Teeter Totters

By: Amy, Elizabeth, James, & Morgan

Moderation allows for consumption of all things that you savor,

combined with an active lifestyle you will discover the perfect

balance between health and happiness.

Carbohydrates

not a diet, but a lifestyle Too many

Americans are on a diet, when the truth is, they need to be in mode to change their lives.

What does

moderation

mean exactly…

Moderation

Moderation doesn’t mean what you think it

means. Too many people think they eat in

moderation when, in reality, their eating

habits are off the rails. ‘Everything in

moderation’ gives the impression that all

foods are nutritionally equal. Well, they

aren’t. You should not be eating moderate

amounts of vegetables and moderate

amounts of dessert. You should be eating

abundant amounts of vegetables and tiny

amounts of dessert (Dennett).

So what can I eat then?

Helpful Tip: 90/10 Rule

Make 90% of the things you eat be

things that are healthy, and the other

10% is your allowance to splurge, on

your sugary, salty, fatty foods.

What could happen if I

am not eating healthy… would it still

make me happy?

Dangers of Unhealthy Eating• Obesity• Heart Disease • Cancer • Diabetes• Arthritis

Avoid the processed foods…Go with the healthy

choices

I can avoid being fat, unhealthy, and diagnosed

with a deadly disease if only I moderate myself, watch my eating habits and one

more thing… what else goes with dieting?

Gym Routine

Too much work out, too little time

The Teeter Totter Challenge

Take one thing that makes you happy, something that

makes you feel good about yourself, do that one thing

everyday that supports your wellbeing and it will become

a habit and you will feel much better about yourself.
